Ok, this is getting tedious. It looks like I need to investigate writing some code to automate writing the inital part of these earthquake posts.

At 9:21 this morning we had a 3.5 magnitude earthquake at almost the exact same location as yesterday evening’s quake. I was still lying in bed when this one hit. I felt a quick, thudding jerk to the right, followed by a series of smaller bumps that diminished in amplitude. It lasted for only about 1 second. The direction of the initial movement was away from the epicenter.
